Story

Back to London for 2019, I proudly run the London Marathon in 2018 and was pleased with my time of 4:58 in very hot conditions. But determined to train harder and see if I can beat last years time.

I work as a Store Manager for The Original Factory Shop at our Wymondham store I and am part of the area 8 team. Make-A-Wish is The Original Factory shop's chosen charity and between 18 stores in East Anglia we have raised over £50000. We are all extremely proud of this. 

Make-A-Wish UK grant magical wishes to enrich the lives of children and young people fighting life-threatening conditions. Granting their wish provides seriously ill children with hope for the future, strength to cope and resilience to fight their condition. They’re given quality time away from the daily realities of living with their condition and given the chance to make magical memories they can treasure forever – whatever their future may hold. We want to transform the lives of 1,000 children this year by granting their One True Wish!
